passing string in Parameter list

i wanted to create a small project using parameter List using an example listed in the factorytalk view manual.
in the display list selector properties under states: parameter list option I typed:
Display Canning/T{Corn_Name}, {Corn_Temp} where Canning is the display name and Corn_Name is an HMI string tag and Corn_Temp is an HMI analog tag then in the Canning display I have a string display object and a numeric display object. The string " corn" always displayed as ?????? while the numeric is displayed with the correct value of the tag. I used the same tags using parameter file and I get the correct values. am I listing the parameter list tags with correct syntax for the string?
Thanks

I don't believe you can use or pass a string data type as a parameter

You have to write: Display Canning/TCorn_Name,Corn_Temp

Passing String to parameter List

in the parameter file we use for example #1=Corn_Name, in parameter list what goes in the connection tab for the object like string display?

In the attached image you'll see the configuration for string display and text object.

I already tried {#1} in the string display and did not work. Where do you define that {#1} is linked to which of the parameters in the parameter list that listed in the states of the display selector object? how does the software know which parameter goes with which {#1}, {#2},...ect?

The order. The first element on the list is #1, the second one is #2, and so on.

Here's the FTVSE example (last images were related to FTVME).

Passing Sting to Parameter List

Thank you all for replying, I already got it working last friday. The one thing that was wrong asside from the order of the tags in the parameter List was that I typed:
Display Canning/Ttag1, tag2, tag3,....
when I removed the words "Display Canning/T" and it worked every time for numeric and string. Tha reason I removed these words because with each state I was opening already the Canning display
Thank you all
